Chapter 193: Mutual Needs, Win-Win
In just a short period of time, the leopard is still quite accurate in seeing people, he knows that Liu Paner is a good person, and he is also Mrs. Drey, following such a person to do things, he can have a good future in the future, it is better than stealing chickens and dogs and wandering around.
The leopard knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Liu Pan'er, "Thank you, madam, if you catch us stealing things, not only don't punish us, but also help us, you are the reincarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva." ”
"Okay, without saying that, let's talk about your request, right? I want people to work for me, and the most important thing is faithfulness. If you can do it, it's easy to say anything else. Liu Pan'er said in a deep voice that she was going to buy servants, but instead of buying those who didn't know the roots, she felt that the lowest but kind-hearted people like Leopard and Ergouzi were very good.
The leopard and the second dog kowtowed to Liu Pan'er three times, "I only have one request, I can work for my wife for ten years without pay, and sign a living contract." My younger brothers are still young, some of them can't work, and they don't know how to do anything. When the ten-year living contract is over and they have grown up, they will stay with them when the time comes. ”
Liu Paner was quite surprised, and even felt that the leopard was smart, no wonder it could feed so many little beggars.
Liu Paner thought for a moment, and felt that it was the same as signing a contract, cooperation is your love and my willingness, and the two parties are win-win, "Okay, I promise you." Now I will take someone to the county seat to go through the formalities of your living deed. ”
Village Chief Li frowned, "Yuan Qing's family, don't you think about it anymore?" ”
Liu Pan'er shook her head, she went to the county seat several times, passed by that small alley, and could see clearly, "Don't think about it, if they can be kind to orphans who are not related by blood, they are not bad people." I hire them to work, they have a place to live, and it's a win-win situation. ”
Li Dabao retorted, feeling that his mother was too hasty, "Mother, you just said, the leopard took the leftovers of the Drunken Immortal Building, and now he has betrayed the shopkeeper of the Drunken Immortal Building, and if there are other benefits in the future, he will also turn his face and betray us." ”
The leopard's eyes were angry and aggrieved, but he didn't argue.
Ergouzi retorted, and couldn't bear this grievance, "We didn't take the things of Zuixianlou for nothing, and the water for making tea in Zuixianlou is twenty miles away from the city, Meishan Spring." Brother Leopard and I went to fill water thirty miles away every morning as soon as the city gate opened. Because the spring water is halfway up the mountain, we have to carry buckets of water down, a large cart of water, and we have to bring it back before noon. ”
"Shopkeeper Zhou didn't give us money, and he was greedy for that salary, so he gave us leftover steamed buns and meals. We are a fair deal and do not owe him. If the leftover meals were given to us by him, and Brother Leopard and I told the shopkeeper Zhou, it would be betrayal, and we would have no conscience. ”
Liu Pan'er nodded, smiled and said, "Yes." The second dog is smart this time! It is true that they do not owe each other, and you don't need to go online, Dabao. They have exchanged it for their hard work, and now in order to save their lives, it is understandable to say that Zhou is the shopkeeper. ”
When the leopard heard this, he pursed his lips, but still did not speak, but continued to kowtow to Liu Pan'er three times.
Not speaking at this time is more convincing than a gushing show of loyalty.
Seeing this, Village Chief Li said, "Since you of the Yuanqing family have decided, then hurry up and go to the county seat!" Let's hurry now, and we may be able to enter the city before the gates close. ”
The men carried the corn and the corn stalks down and sent them home.
The leopard and the second dog followed.
The second dog asked the leopard in a low voice, "Brother Leopard, are we really selling ourselves into slavery?" ”
The leopard nodded, "It's rare to meet a good person, and it's also a woman, soft-hearted, willing to take us and the eight younger brothers and sisters below." After ten years, when we live in peace and our younger siblings grow up, we don't have to sneak around all day for stuttering. This auspicious town is a town sealed by His Majesty, as long as we are down-to-earth and willing to work, we can always eat, and the most important thing is that we can live a peaceful life. ”
Ergouzi nodded, "I listen to Brother Leopard!" ”
Liu Pan'er went back to explain, then took out his black steed and said to Village Chief Li: "Uncle, you drive the ox cart with Dabao and a few people in the village, as well as two dogs and leopards, to the county seat together." Go there and stay at the inn directly, don't be reluctant to pay for it. You cushion first, and I'll give it when you come back. ”
Everyone looked at the tall black horse and was quite greedy.
But they don't know how to ride horses, they only have greed.
"Okay, you have to go first, we'll follow." Village Chief Li responded, "Although I don't report to the official, I have to talk to the Gu family, so as not to be calculated, I don't know yet." ”
Liu Pan'er nodded, "That's exactly what I said!" ”
Liu Paner hung the package on the edge of the saddle, moved quickly, turned over and got on the horse, "I'll go first!" ”
Li Dabao watched his mother leave on a black horse greedily, and secretly said in his heart: When his mother comes back from the county seat, he must let his mother teach him to ride a horse.
Usually in the morning, Liu Paner will ride the black wind and run for a while.
I'm going to the county seat today, Liu Paner is wearing a hat to shade the sun, and I want to try how long it takes to run to the county seat without stopping in the middle.
Hei Feng deserves to be a good horse, the four hooves are very stable and powerful, sitting on the horse's back, Liu Pan'er can feel the wind across her face.
The speed, along with her heart, also soared.
Eighty miles away, Liu Paner arrived at the county seat in less than an hour.
However, the first time I rode so far, my butt and inner thighs were ground and a little sore.
Liu Paner followed the people guarding the city gate, and spent ten yuan to inquire that the people who delivered spring water to Zuixianlou every morning were indeed two street gangsters named Leopard and Ergouzi.
Liu Paner passed through the alley last time, and several children were playing in it. There was a girl about ten years old, who saw Liu Paner staring all the time, immediately looked at Liu Paner vigilantly, and dragged her younger siblings who were playing at the mouth of the alley back.
"Come in quickly, the flower shooter is coming, and I will arrest you." The girl reminded her younger siblings, loud, as if she had said it on purpose, and was alert.
A seven or eight-year-old child ran over, "Sister Cat, Brother Leopard, Brother Dog, when will they come back?" Am I hungry? ”
The little girl, who was called Sister Mao'er, looked at Liu Pan'er vigilantly, and whispered to the little boy: "When it is time to eat at noon, the brothers will come back, and when the time comes, eat together, don't eat secretly." ”
Sister Mao'er's voice was louder, and she warned Liu Pan'er, who was staring at them not far away, that they were not little beggars, wild children, and brothers who no one cared about.
Liu Paner's heart was slightly sour, the most pitiful thing was these children who had no father and no mother.
From the dialogue of these children, it can also be heard that they rely on the leopard and the second dog, after all, these two people are big children, powerful, can make money, and can fight.
